Wellness Night

Global Engagement Night on Tuesday, April 14 was all about wellness and how students can maintain and improve their holistic health. After an informative presentation on the nine dimensions of wellness, students engaged in some friendly competition in a round of ‘Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?’ while testing their knowledge of the campus resources available that ensure student wellness.

Although we were short a million dollars to award the winning team, they were presented with a plethora of sweet treats for their achievement. Join us on Tuesday, April 21, for more fun at our potluck during Global Engagement Night in 122 Oxley Hall at 6 p.m.

Central & South America Night

For last week’s Global Engagement Night, on Tuesday, March 31, students came together to learn some fun facts about Central and South America. Students were split up into four different teams to battle it out in a trivia game. Who knew that the Amazon Rain Forest had over 2.5 million insect species and pink dolphins can be found swimming in the Amazon River? This Global Engagement Night called for teamwork and great discussion, but eventually one team took the win!
